Conrad Atkinson (b.1940) is one of the most important international artists of his generation, noted for his unflinching and often provocative approach to social and political themes. Atkinson's ceramic landmines are inextricably linked to his ideas about landscape and make a powerful anti-war statement. Women and children are often the victims of these lethal weapons and Atkinson's ceramic landmines reference both historic paintings of women and children and factory ceramics. These sculptural pieces have the power to shock; they look like interesting objects and draw you in with the copies of familiar Renoir paintings, before you realise that they are manufactured to kill and maim people as well as destroying the landscape.
